Research note: Maize and forage sorghum as silage crops under drought conditions

open access: yes, 2007
Maize (Senkuil) and a forage sorghum hybrid (DeKalb FS2) were compared as silage crops under drought conditions. Sorghum yielded more digestible organic matter per hectare than maize.

Mucuna pruriens as a Sustainable Functional Food: Applications From Seed to Product

open access: yesModern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 2, December 2026.
This review highlights Mucuna pruriens as a nutrient‐rich legume with significant nutritional, therapeutic, and agricultural value. Its protein‐rich seeds contain essential minerals and L‐DOPA, but high antinutritional compounds require effective processing before consumption.

Genomic and phenomic prediction models improve selection accuracy for complex traits in alfalfa

open access: yesThe Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Predictive breeding has been proposed as an effective approach to accelerate genetic gain for complex traits. Genomic prediction (GP) models have been developed in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) for key traits in the last decade. More recently, phenomic prediction (PP) models have been proposed as a low‐cost, high‐throughput alternative to GP in

Effects of 4R nitrogen management on corn silage production

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 118, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
Abstract Nitrogen (N) is one of the critical and costliest inputs for corn silage (Zea mays) production. Excessive N applications decrease profits for growers via increased cost of production and raise environmental concerns. The four core principles of the 4R nutrient stewardship framework—right source (S), right rate (R), right time (T), and right ...

Bioprocessing of Damaged Wheat Grain Into PHB Using Lactobacillus Fermentation Following Optimized Acid Hydrolysis

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2026.
336.66 mg/g RS from DWG hydrolysis at 45 min with 6% HCl. 1.85 g/L PHB produced by FH12 at 30°C, 6%, after 96 h. NMR and FTIR confirmed the authentic chemical structure of PHB. PHB showed thermal stability from 270°C to 340°C with max loss at 350°C. PHB showed UV‐blocking and crystalline structure for packaging use.

Effects of mixed microbial fermentation on the quality and metabolite profile of cassava leaf feed based on untargeted metabolomics

open access: yesJSFA reports, Volume 6, Issue 11, Page 500-514, November 2026.
Abstract Background Cassava leaves are a major byproduct of cassava processing and have a low utilization rate. In this study, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Bacillus subtilis were used for solid‐state fermentation of cassava leaves to improve their feed quality. Results After 48 h of fermentation, the feed pH decreased to
